Chapter Twenty-Three: The Witch Clan's Envoy

In the early morning of the next day, Yan Zong took two disciples of Cangming Valley to the edge of the stone bridge at the mouth of the valley, and he specially came to the mouth of the valley to greet him for the arrival of the envoy of the Wu clan. The breeze blew across the bridge, blowing the hair of Yan Zong and the others, and he looked at the abyss below the bridge, and secretly thought to himself: "I don't know what kind of world is at the bottom of this valley?"

The Cangming disciple standing beside Yan Zong immediately asked, "Third Master, haven't you been to the bottom of this valley yet?"

Yan Zong shook his head slightly, and after a pause, he replied: "I haven't been there, the old valley lord has heard him say before he passed away, there is a powerful evil thing locked at the bottom of this valley, it has the strength to destroy the world, this evil thing was pressed by Cangming Mountain, so it was not born!"

Hearing Yan Zong's words, the Cangming disciple was very curious, and asked, "Then what is this evil thing, it can actually destroy the heavens and the earth!"

Yan Zong shook his head slightly and replied, "This is all a legend, and I don't know if it's true or not, just listen to it!"

Yan Zong's words fell, and a voice came from the valley mouth, saying, "Senior brother, you are alarmist again!" Yan Zong and the three looked back after hearing the sound, only to see the old man Qingjian walking over from the valley mouth with Wu Han and Luo Chen.

The three of them came to the stone bridge, and the old man Qingjian looked at the abyss under the bridge, and said: "Where are there any evil things that destroy the world and destroy the world, those are all stories made up by the master and his old man when we were children, scaring us and not letting us play on this stone bridge, in case we fall into the abyss!"

After the words fell, the old man of Qingjian looked forward again and asked, "The envoy of the Wu clan has not arrived yet?"

Yan Zong nodded and replied, "According to what the letter said, it should be this hour, maybe there was some delay on the way!

The old man of the green sword put his hands behind his back, and let the breeze blow his white hair and long beard, he paused and then said, "The Wu clan is coming, I am here to greet him!"

Luo Chen leaned towards Wu Han on the side, and said with a smile: "Hey, I'm about to see your clansmen soon, how about it?

Wu Leng snorted and said, "What's the matter, if it weren't for the master to ask me to come, I wouldn't have bothered to deal with them!

Luo Chen shook his head and continued: "Hey... You women are really duplicitous little animals, obviously looking forward to it in your heart, but you want to say the opposite, I really don't understand!"

Wu Han pinched Luo Chen's arm vigorously, and said angrily: "Who do you say is a small animal? I see that your skin is itchy again, I'll scratch you!"

Luo Chen immediately pushed Wu Han's hand away, touched his arm, and said, "Senior sister, it hurts, you are too ruthless!"

Wu Han chuckled lightly and said, "For people like you, you have to be ruthless, otherwise you won't have a long memory!" When the words fell, I saw two people coming from the plank road of the cliff, a man and a woman, the man was nearly seven feet tall, wearing a purple robe embroidered with green patterns, covered with a bright silk milky white placket on the back, the robe was turned upside down and tucked into the white jade belt around the waist, and a pair of white deerskin boots were worn on the feet, and the face was slightly tired, which looked like it should have been caused by a long journey. The woman had long fine black hair, wore a black robe, and tied a gray bell on the jade belt around her waist, and the bell "jingled" with her advancing steps, and the sound was very crisp!

The two came to the stone bridge, Yan Zong and the others saw this, and immediately greeted them, the man and the woman first arched their hands at the old man Qingjian and his party, and then the man said: "Presumably, this should be the old man Qingjian, the lord of Cangming Valley, who has admired his name for a long time, and it is an honor to meet him today!"

The old man of Qingjian smiled and said: "You don't have to be polite, I am an old friend with your patriarch, I don't know how the patriarch is doing recently?"

The man immediately replied: "The patriarch is all right, in the past, I often heard the patriarch mention you and Cangming Valley, you are the great benefactor of our Wu clan!

The old man of Qingjian paused, and then pointed at Wu Han and said, "This is the girl that the Wu clan patriarch gave me twenty years ago, the daughter of the Wu clan patriarch - Wu Han, and now she has grown up!"

Shatu and Ding Ning immediately came to Wu Han's face, and said very excitedly: "Young Patriarch, we finally see you!" It is not difficult to see from Shatu's eyes that his mood at this moment is a little complicated, in addition to that excitement and happiness, there seems to be a kind of concern.

Wu Han cleared his throat and said, "My name is Wu Han, I'm not your young patriarch, I don't know you!"

Wu Han's words made the Wu clan look a little embarrassed, and the old man of Qingjian looked at Wu Han and immediately said: "Wu Han, don't be like this, the Wu clan is your home, and they are all your family!"

Wu Leng snorted and said, "Cangming Valley is my home, you are my family, they are not!"

Yan Zong on the side wanted to speak, but was preempted by Sha Tu, he smiled and said: "What the young patriarch said is also true, she grew up in Cangming Valley since she was a child, and her feelings for this place are naturally better than those of the Wu clan, but I think she will accept it slowly!"

Wu Han glared at Shatu and said, "I said that my name is Wu Han, not your young patriarch!

At this time, Luo Chen stepped forward from behind and said, "I said, senior sister, you can steal the fun! Why don't you let your family into the valley quickly, do you want them to spend the night on this bridge?"

Luo Chen's words were nothing to Wu Han, but he reminded the old man of Qingjian, only to see that he was suddenly stunned, and said: "Luo Chen is right, I'm really sorry, hurry up and follow me into the valley to rest!"

Luo Chen walked beside Wu Han, he looked at Shatu in front of him, coughed dryly, and said, "Senior sister, have you and Na Shatu known each other before?" I can feel from his eyes that he seems to like you very much, go back this time... Ah, lightly, it hurts!" Just as Luo Chen spoke, Wu Han had already grabbed the flesh on his arm.

A smile appeared at the corner of Wu Han's mouth, and he said: "I was already in Cangming Valley when I remembered, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will make you look good!"

Luo Chen patted his arm, looking aggrieved, and said: "It's too ruthless, and I don't let people tell the truth, it's really unreasonable!"

After entering the valley, the old man Qingjian brought the envoy of the Wu clan to the main hall of the Ming Tower, and introduced the things that have happened in the Cangming Valley in recent years to the envoy of the Wu clan, and roughly described the things of Wu Han in the past 20 years, and at the same time, the old man of the green sword also learned some things about the Wu clan from the mouth of the envoy of the Wu clan. Under the leadership of the patriarch of the Wu clan, the Wu clan escaped death, and finally escaped the people of Jiuli Palace and survived. Now, the Wu people have returned to their original place of life, and there are more and more people, and the entire Wu clan has become stronger and stronger.

Nearly dusk, Wu Han came alone to the stone mountain next to the Ming Tower Immortal Pond, when she was a child, this place only belonged to her, whenever she was unhappy, she would come here, although this place could not see the entire Cangming Valley, but it could always bring Wu Han some inexplicable sense of belonging. She sat on the stone, watching the sunset that was about to sink, and she didn't know when sadness and reluctance arose in her heart. Even if she didn't say it, she knew very well in her heart that this time, she was leaving here!

Just when Wu Han was engrossed in watching the sunset, Luo Chen poked his head out of the narrow stone path on the side, and Wu Han didn't look at him, so he said: "Little junior brother Luo Chen, come just in time, come and chat with me!"

Luo Chen cleared his throat and said, "You found it again!"

Wu Han turned his head to look at Luo Chen sideways, and said with a smile: "At this time, who else but you know that I am on this stone mountain?"

Luo Chen sat down beside Wu Han and said, "That's what you said, what do you want to talk to me?" ”

Wu Han looked at the sunset on the horizon and hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "The scenery here is so beautiful, remember the first time I brought you here?"

Luo Chen nodded slightly, and replied, "Of course I remember, if you hadn't been encouraging me at that time, I'm afraid I would have given up cultivation a long time ago." Time flies, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye!"

The two of them quietly looked at the scenery of Cangming Valley at dusk, and did not speak for a long time, and then two people appeared in their field of vision at the same time, that is, Shatu and Ding Ning, who came from the Wu clan. Luo Chen looked at the two of them and said, "Senior sister, I'm afraid you really have to leave Cangming Valley this time, I know what you think, and I also know that you are reluctant to go to Cangming Valley, but the Wu Clan is your home after all, no matter what happened in the past, you should also go back and see it now!"

Wu Leng snorted and said, "You still need to teach me! I see that you can't wait to let me go, after I leave, no one will bully you!"

Luo Chen stood up from the stone in a flash, and said: "Senior sister, I don't like to hear this, when did I say that I wanted you to leave? Do you remember the agreement we made when we were children? When we grow up, you accompany me to find my mother and sister, and I accompany you to find your father and mother, now, I already know where your father is, I naturally want to go to the Wu Clan with you to meet your father, I Luo Chen is the person who keeps his promise the most!"

Hearing Luo Chen's words, Wu Han's face showed a hint of joy, occupying all the previous sorrow. She paused and said, "You must not lie to me, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!" Speaking of this, Wu Han suddenly stopped, and the joy that had just been revealed on his face disappeared, Luo Chen saw this and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Wu Han took two steps forward and said, "I'm worried that Master won't let you out of the valley, why don't you go to the Wu Clan with me!"

Luo Chen walked to Wu Han's side and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way!"

Before you know it, the sunset has already sunk from the sky, and the night has gradually hit, covering the whole land.
